Lyrics of the Song 'My Sister'
In my house by the river, there's a small arched bridge
Cau trees sway gracefully under the sun, amidst the betel leaves
My sister, looking charming, sells vegetables at Cau Dong market
My sister remains unmarried.
In her girlhood, many secretly hoped to be her suitor
Mother urges her daughter to marry and leave
My sister loves her two younger siblings, cares for our aging mother
My sister remains unmarried.
After our mother passed away, we lost our innocence
My sister worries about her younger siblings, about marital matters
The day we parted by the river, I saw her sadness and felt pity
My sister remains unmarried.
One night, a man came through with a proposal
They built a bridge across the river
Meeting my charming sister, he asked for her hand in marriage
My sister wanted to get married.
After the bridge was built, no one came to escort the bride
Leaving my sister waiting with tearful eyes
The cau trees, once so green, shed sorrowful betel leaves
My sister remains unmarried.
Many years later, returning to the village, I visited
Seeing the withered cau trees and dry betel leaves
My sister's small, beautiful grave stands by the bridge, full of longing
Oh, my sister, why have you not yet married?
My sister remains unmarried...
